This book was an absolute page Turner for me! I bought it on January 4th and finished it on January 4th! I couldn’t put it down! (My kids were jealous too). I love mermaid/man stories in general but most are not so well written and thought out! This one was. I highly recommend it!
Warning; it DOES deal with family issues and expectations put on the children of said families. Well worth the read and excellent and working through it!
A sexy merman, a human woman, and clan warfare: What could possibly go wrong? Nothing from the point of the reader. Dive in and wallow in an aquatic love story that will have you believing in merfolk.
Wow!
I read this in one afternoon! I had no idea what to expect never reading about mermen or anything by this author, but I couldn’t put this book down!
I was fascinated with the story and the concept! This book had it all! Intrigue, suspense, heartache, fantasy, and romance with plenty of steam!
It’s very well written and edited in its entirety! My only issue was (no spoilers) that I couldn’t help but wonder what happened with Nain, Alex’s grandmother!
Other than that very minor item, well done! I can’t wait to read more!
Beware. These are not your nice and gentle, pretty merpeople, but HE stands out from the rest, at least in Alex’s eyes.
She doesn’t know…
He’s forbidden to tell…
Could the old legends be true?
Is there one special woman, waiting for him to find her?
Could she be human?
It’s hard to come up with new and unusual moments in a familiar tale, but Alice Renaud succeeded. I was quickly drawn in by the world and characters. Some hot romance is in order and, even though it was heavy, it was also sweet and innocent. I loved this wonderful adventure in Alice Renaud’s fantasy world. An easy read and it left me wanting more. Just proves, predictable can be very enjoyable.
I voluntarily reviewed a free copy of A Merman’s Choice by Alice Renaud.

“A merman’s joy always came out as music.”
What an enjoyable read! A determined heroine wants to uncover the secrets of the Morvann Islands, but little does she know that she’s getting a little more than she bargained for. She not only has to face fears of past trauma, but she must learn that love takes many forms. Literally.
A merman’s choice has an awesome opening, with amazing metaphors throughout the book. I love that the merpeople sing to reflect their emotions, and I especially love their culture and way of life.
Full of mystery, intrigue, and awesome characters, A Merman’s Choice is definitely a book you want to pick up if you like merpeople and a heart-stopping romance.
These two lovers have not only completely different lives to over come, but they are also up against an entire clan that does not want them to end up together. Great read.
